Bantam cochin sex on 7 week olds

[Ocho 8 Farm]

I’m not too familiar with bantam Cochins so it’s a little difficult for me to pinpoint who is what gender. Any one out there with experience please help. Thanks!

They all look like pullets, but I don't think they're pure Cochins. They're all mixed colors, and #2 has a crest.

Interesting… I did notice the crest on the one and wondered about it. What do you think the mix is? Cochin and what else?

It's hard to tell. The last one looks like maybe a Brahma mix. The second has to be mixed with something that has a crest, maybe Silkie? She doesn't have any other Silkie traits though, like five toes, a mulberry comb, or dark feet. Maybe she's a Polish mix. The first could be mixed with practically anything.

Just realized the last one has a beard, so it's probably an Easter or Olive Egger mix. In fact, that's probably what all of them are. That would explain the crest on the second one, because some Olive Eggers have crests.

Yes I think you’re right! I was thinking the crested one is a polish mix because of the absence of the silkie traits and the face on the other one resembles a brahma. I was hoping they were pure bantam cochins
I appreciate your help!!
